Here is a read-aloud about rollercoasters! If you've ever ridden one, you might think they are pretty fun, or you might think they are scary. Let's think about this --engineers had to design them and then builders had to construct them! It's kind of amazing that people are able to build rollercoasters that make riders go super fast on a track, make them go down very steep hills, and even make them go in loops upside-down--all while keeping everyone safe! It takes a lot of science to make that happen!
